Love before marriage

I don't know how much Su Jinfan listened to the quarrel that night, but Chi Heng was already prepared.

He was officially promoted to director on the day of the transition meeting and had two assistants to split his duties.According to the rules of the workplace, he must treat guests. He has always been generous in this regard, so naturally he will not be so weak as to use his discomfort as an excuse to shirk, so he must go.Drinking must be added to the fun at this kind of banquet. Chi Heng opened them dry red wine, but he didn't drink it himself. In order not to arouse speculation, he privately informed the waiter, served him grape juice, and stuffed a few hundred dollars Tips keep waiters a secret.

The color of the grape juice was almost exactly the same as that of dry red, and the people present were bustling with excitement, and no one noticed the slightest difference.

Chi Heng went to the bathroom a few times on the way, and continued to eat with his colleagues after returning.

When the glasses were clinked, everyone stood up and drank it all in one gulp.But Chi Heng stopped after taking a big sip, and suddenly frowned.

Everyone else was waiting for the director to drink it all down, but Chi Heng's face changed slightly, he waved his hand apologetically, pushed the stool away and ran to the bathroom immediately.As soon as the door closed, he rushed to the sink and spit out the drink in his mouth.

It was mixed with alcohol, and not a little bit.

He used to drink a lot when socializing, so the smell of alcohol couldn't hide it from him.

After repeatedly cleaning his mouth several times with cold white water, he returned to the private room. Everyone asked him what was wrong. Chi Heng avoided the seriousness and said lightly that it was just because he was a little nauseous after drinking too much, which disturbed everyone's interest. He was very sorry.The others were polite and concerned, but Chi Heng said it was all right, and picked up chopsticks to eat, so the others quickly returned to the meal, and no one continued to ask.

Chi Heng looked at everyone's expressions calmly, and there was nothing abnormal.He breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that he was too vigilant and paranoid. After all, the disc was spinning like this, the glass was easy to mix up, and it was normal for the wine to pour into his glass.But more caution must be exercised.

Also, I don't know when, Chi Heng received flowers in the office every day, and he was very attentive in changing various patterns.At first, he thought it was a gift from a former client. After all, they help people answer questions and do consultations. It is normal to receive flowers and gifts. He distributed these flowers to his colleagues, and some of them looked at the stickers inside. He said pleasantly, "Oh, these flowers were all airlifted from the UK! It's great! Who sent them? Such a big deal! Isn't it..." There was a burst of connotative laughter.

Before waiting for his colleagues to ask all kinds of gossip, Chi Heng said calmly: "If you like it, take it all, just to save me trouble."

He subconsciously rejects excessive kindness and too much courtesy, so this kind of "goodness" can't make him get carried away.Later, every time the assistant came in happily holding flowers, Chi Heng asked him to take them out to share with his colleagues without even looking at them.

Then one day, Chi Heng finished a three-hour work report at an important meeting, and then negotiated with partners and successfully signed several large orders. He felt a little tired after such a tight agenda.

Back in the office, Chi Heng tore off his tie with one hand and threw it on the back of the chair, then took off his tight suit, leaned on the large chair and closed his eyes to rest.

The assistant said someone was looking for him, Chi Heng nodded slightly thinking it was a client, but it turned out that it was Su Jinfan.

Chi Heng raised his eyelids, put on the suit jacket he took off again, and put his fingers on the table, "What do you want me for?" He looked businesslike and elite.

Men will have several completely different looks. They are different at work and at home, and they treat friends, lovers, and bed partners differently.In Su's house, Chi Heng was always taciturn, neither arguing nor quarreling, and even a little dull.On the contrary, he is completely different in working state, with a tough and neat aura all over his body.

This is his original appearance, and it is also the most exciting appearance. He can achieve this state by himself. The wealthy circle, the identity of the third young master, the right to inherit property rights, etc. are actually superfluous to him. become a burden.

Su Jinfan took a few more seconds to look at the person in front of him, and smiled habitually, "It's just lunch time, let's go have a meal together, and I have something to tell you by the way."

"No, you just say it here."

Su Jinfan hooked the corners of his mouth in an unclear manner, "Are you sure you want to talk about this at your workplace? Let's go to the restaurant." He paused deliberately, "Well...to avoid people's eyes and ears."

Chi Heng put his hands on his knees, tapped his fingers lightly, and after thinking for a while, he leaned back in his chair, "If it's still about Xie Tang, it goes without saying, and there's no need to avoid people's eyes and ears."

Being punctured all of a sudden, Su Jinfan was inevitably dissatisfied, and snorted softly, "Yes, I just came to tell you about this."

Chi Heng asked calmly, "What else do you want to ask me?"

This kind of sideways face made the proud and arrogant Su Jinfan feel unhappy, he raised his eyebrows and said stingingly: "Since you claim to be aloof and arrogant, then tell me, what's the matter with this person? You can't solve this debt by yourself, but he came to me again and again and gave me a lot of trouble, do you know that?"

"Is it trouble, or benefit?" Chi Heng replied.

Su Jinfan narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice, "Chi Heng, are you questioning me?"

"Is this considered to be a question?" Chi Heng's face was faint, and his dark brown eyes showed a rare sharp edge, but the next moment he closed his eyes and said slowly: "Since the marriage has been decided, let's settle down." Is it okay to share. The Lu family has also given you so many benefits, sometimes it's best not to be too greedy, if you want to have both, I'm afraid you won't get anything in the end."

He used Chi Heng to get all kinds of benefits from Xie Tang, and then turned around to charge Chi Heng with the charge of "promiscuity", and retreated unscathed.It was the same way in the Su family before, but although Chi Heng was cold, he never lost his temper. Su Jinfan thought that Chi Heng didn't notice that he was a person who could be rubbed.

Chi Heng was originally not from this circle, and he was indeed not good at these shrewd calculations, but it didn't mean he couldn't see through it, he just didn't want to bother thinking about it.

Chi Heng was very calm, he didn't seem to have any intention of questioning, and his tone was not violent.Su Jinfan felt that Chi Heng didn't dare to "offend", and he was a little more satisfied in his heart. He changed the subject and said, "Could it be because of Xie Tang that you were afraid that the marriage would not work out, so you rushed forward non-stop?"

"No." Chi Heng gave a negative answer, but did not explain.

"Could it be that the honeymoon is really in a hurry?" Su Jinfan chuckled disapprovingly, "This marriage should go smoothly, otherwise the Su family can't afford to lose face. Besides, he won't follow you for no reason, right? You guys It's somewhat involved, as far as I know, Xie Tang has been in England for several years, haven't you been there too?"

"Yes."

"Then do you have a paragraph?"

"No."

"Don't hide it from me. I came to you alone to figure out this mess, solve unnecessary troubles, and preserve the reputation and face of the Su family."

"No."

"Chi Heng, I really underestimated you. Outsiders say that you are not interested. It seems to be wrong. You are very 'interested', especially in your private life. It is hard to find a spare tire for this kind of condition. You really You are much smarter than you imagined, and you have left yourself several retreats."

Blurring the key points, transferring the mistake to Chi Heng, almost no one can explain it, and Chi Heng simply doesn't explain it. In front of those who deliberately want to discredit you, all explanations will only get darker and darker.

Chi Heng has been accepting all kinds of inquiries calmly, like a junior who respects his elder brother, which makes Su Jinfan even more satisfied. He enjoys this kind of high-ranking pleasure, especially when the object is Chi Heng, which will deepen that feeling.

Su Jinfan's tone finally softened a bit, "Actually, big brother doesn't blame you, but you have to take care of your emotional affairs. I don't care how you mess up before and after marriage, but you have to bind this contract. Xie Tang Now it's all on my head, and I can't do anything about it, and I'm afraid that you two are in love, and the marriage with the Lu family is wrong, so this matter worries me a lot. A few days ago in my house... those words I really shouldn't say it, but when it comes to the reputation of our Su family, I can't just leave it alone."

Chi Heng interrupted him, endured the irritability in his heart, "I will solve this matter, and it won't affect you."

Su Jinfan glanced at Chi Heng, and was very satisfied with the answer in his heart, but of course he still pretended not to care.

In fact, most people in the Su family don't hate this stepson, except for a very few who are as domineering and mischievous as Su Yu, as long as a reasonable adult thinks about it a little, there is no need to be at odds with Chi Heng, and perhaps maintain the necessary friendship relation.

Chi Heng doesn't fight for property, doesn't cause trouble, and doesn't play counterattacks, and helps the Su family solve the marriage, and along with tens of millions of signings, it's so easy to get done.

The huge gift money, expenses, etc. given by the Lu family were all transferred to the Su family's name, and Chi Heng himself only owned the house.It is also because the house is jointly owned by the young couple and cannot be transferred out.

Su Jinfan would never give himself up to himself, anyway, let Chi Heng marry the Lu family, and after that, he would receive the property and benefits of the two families, without having to sacrifice his body and emotions.

It is Chi Heng who pays, but he, Su Jinfan, is the recipient of the benefits, and Chi Heng never wants the Su family to make up for it, let alone worry that he will use his ambition to snatch the heir's position.Zero payment, zero risk, unparalleled high returns, and endless streams - is there a better deal than this?

Most of the people in that circle are actually bisexual, and Su Jinfan is the same. From time to time, he will play with fresh boys, but never be the bottom one, and he never intends to find a man back.

"If you don't want to be with the Lu family and want to change someone, I can help you, and you don't have to hide it from the big brother. In fact, thank you..."

"Stop talking about it." Chi Heng hated this topic from the bottom of his heart.

Su Jinfan looked at Chi Heng, and finally agreed to restrain himself, "Okay, that's good, since your decision has been made, then I will pretend that I never knew Xie Tang, but you must deal with him well, and don't suddenly pop up."

"meeting."

"Then why don't you talk to Xie Tang first?" Su Jinfan asked him with a smile.

Chi Heng glanced at him, "What do you mean?"

Su Jinfan pointed to the outside, "He called me just now and said he wanted to see you very much. How about it? Let's have a talk."

He hadn't contacted Xie Tang these days, and Su Jinfan obviously made this call on purpose.

Chi Heng lowered his head and frowned.

Su Jinfan found it very interesting, "I just asked you to go to the restaurant to talk, but you didn't go by yourself, so you can meet him in the office. Oh, didn't you just get promoted, Mr. Director's tongue, the subordinates should not dare Just chew. Alright, I'm leaving first." He turned and left happily, and when he closed the door, he gave Chi Heng a vague look.

The person in front of him changed again, Chi Heng didn't want to see him at first, but Xie Tang stood in front of him, "I've been ignoring me for so long, I've left me alone, can't we just sit down and talk for a while?"

Chi Heng asked bluntly, "What is your purpose?"

Xie Tang said without hesitation, "Of course I want to take you back."

Chi Heng frowned, "You should go see a psychiatrist!"

"I knew you didn't believe it. Anyway, you have already preconceived that I am a bad person. No matter what I say now, you won't believe it."

"That's because you never told the truth!"

"My goal is you, this is the truth!" Xie Tang was more confident than him.

Chi Heng's gaze became a little cold, "Then please change your purpose! I don't want to play with you!"

Xie Tang was taken aback, then smiled again, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have made you angry. I just wanted to say, you don't belong to anyone or like anyone, so why can't I snatch you back?"

No matter how good-tempered he is, he is a little impatient at the moment, "You mean you know me very well? Then please tell us your identity directly, ex-lover? Bed partner? One-night stand? Just say it, don't be vague on purpose!"

"Of course it's not a bed partner or a one-night stand. It's too fake. It's impossible for you..." Xie Tang paused, "It's an ex-lover. I liked you a long time ago." He suddenly held Chi Heng's hand, " You knew me first, before Lu Mingyan."

Chi Heng looked at him sarcastically, "You didn't tell the truth, you would never be an ex-lover, otherwise with your personality, you would have said it right from the start! Why did you think about it just now?" I withdrew my hand, "I don't remember knowing you. And, what if I was before him? So I should like you! If you continue to be so vague or intentionally misleading, it can only show that you are guilty!"

"I liked you a long time ago, much earlier than him."

"Since this is the case, why have you never appeared in front of me? But you came to disturb me when I was about to get married. Is this what you call 'like'? I don't need this cheap 'like'! "

Perhaps it was because Chi Heng's two questions hit the nail on the head, Xie Tang fell silent, and did not speak for a long time.

"Stay with me, okay? I will definitely treat you better than Lu Mingyan. I can give what he can, and I can also give what he can't. Chenchen, give me a chance to make up."

Chi Heng became more and more calm, "Compensation? The last thing I need is compensation! Maybe we really knew each other before, but you probably caused it to become like this. I gave you a chance to speak out, but you didn't want to tell it in full. I'm the truth, forget it, then don't ask, I'm not interested in it!"

After saying these words, Chi Heng stood up abruptly, "We're done here, please don't bother me in the future!"

Xie Tang stood up after him, stood in front of him, smiled lightly, then took out an exquisite and small brocade box, opened it and pushed it in front of Chi Heng. Inside was a men's watch, which was obviously of great value.

"I've troubled you for helping me pick up my luggage, and I'm giving this to you as a thank you."

Chi Heng frowned.

Xie Tang took out the watch, "This is specially made in Switzerland, with your name engraved on it." The back of the silver watch is engraved with cursive English "forever" and Chinese "heng", "Look, this is specially given to you." Yours, if you won't take it, nobody can take it."

The end of the price of this watch can buy a car, but Chi Heng has no interest in this suspected "gift" of buying, he stared at Xie Tang coldly, "Please leave."

"Come back to me, okay? I swear, I will treat you twice as well!" Xie Tang grabbed Chi Heng's hand.

"Let go!" Chi Heng was a little annoyed, but Xie Tang held on tightly for the second time, with a rare look of remorse on his face, "You don't remember me at all? You don't remember me at all?"

Chi Heng shook his hand away irritably, and accidentally knocked over the coffee on the corner of the table with too much force, the brown juice suddenly splashed out, staining the hem of his jacket, fortunately the cup of coffee had cooled down, otherwise it would have been almost scalded.

Xie Tang hastily apologized and took out a tissue to wipe him, but in the middle of hastily wiping, his palm stroked Chi Heng's abdomen heavily. He pushed it away, and knocked the chair over with great force. The loud noise made the two assistants think that something happened, so they immediately opened the door and came in, and the employees outside also joined in the fun and looked here.

Chi Heng couldn't care about these anymore, he raised his hand and pointed, "Get lost."

After Xie Tang stood firm, he looked at Chi Heng with red eyes, and was stunned and unbelievable for a moment. In his impression, Chi Heng had never been angry.

"You hate me so much now?"

Chi Heng turned his face in disgust.

Xie Tang stared at him, as if trying to find even a tiny bit of emotion from his face, but unfortunately he didn't find it.

"Why can't you come back to me? What do you like about him?! Obviously, I can give you everything, even more than what the Lu family can give you!"

Chi Heng's gaze was extremely cold, "Judging from the benefits you have given Su Jinfan, you are indeed more than the Lu family, otherwise he would not have spoken for you."

Xie Tang was going crazy, "I don't know what ecstasy soup Lu Mingyan poured into you! From the moment I approached you, you were like a hedgehog covered in thorns! You were either defensive or perfunctory to me, I only had to pass Su Jinfan! Now I It's all wrong to connect with you?"

"Of course it's wrong! He and I have already obtained the certificate."

Hearing this sentence, Xie Tang stopped abruptly, and also stopped what he hadn't finished speaking.He looked at Chi Heng for a long time, and finally smiled self-deprecatingly, and finally agreed to leave.

Chi Heng didn't care about the discussions outside, he immediately closed the door and changed into another set of clean spare clothes.When I was changing clothes, I accidentally saw my abdomen. The outline of the original abdominal muscles had become very light, and the skin there was whiter, smoother, and thinner, and blood vessels began to emerge.Chi Heng stared at it for a moment, then stretched out his hand, but he didn't touch it after all.I don't know why, but there is still a faint feeling of nausea in my heart.

At that time, he was still a little apprehensive about the child, but he already had other, softer emotions.

Then, what should he do, without delaying any process, as if he was not affected at all.In the afternoon, I received a text message from Dr. Cheng, "Remember to come for the treatment and examination."

Probably because he knows Chi Heng's situation and difficulties too well, any instructions and information Dr. Cheng gives him are as simple as possible. In front of Chi Heng, he may say "obstetric examination", but in other cases he will only say "examination". , unless they already know the inside story, others generally cannot guess the meaning.
